I'm Not Here
Lost Echoes: Navigating Shadows of the Past and Future
Lyrics
You see me
You perceive my presence
But I'm not here
I am emotionally absent or detached
You feel me
You sense my existence
But I am stuck in the past
I am trapped in the past
Racing thoughts tie up my mind
My mind is overwhelmed by racing thoughts
Tossing wide eyed night after night
Nights are restless, filled with wide-eyed tossing
And it's killing me
The situation is causing harm
It's slowly killing me
The harm is occurring gradually
Cuz I can't live like this
I cannot endure living in this way
I can't live like this
Reiteration of the inability to live in the current state
I can't live like this
Repeated expression of inability to endure the present situation
You see me
You observe my existence
I'm not here
I am not emotionally present
You feel me
You perceive my emotions
But I'm still lost in my head
I am still mentally lost
So many voices it's driving me mad
My mind is overwhelmed by numerous voices, causing madness
An endless supply of ideas and plans
An abundance of ideas and plans is driving me insane
And it's driving me mad
This mental state is causing madness
I scare myself sometimes
I am frightening myself on occasion
I scare myself sometimes
Repetition of self-frightening experiences
I scare you too
I am causing fear in you as well
Push them down or lock me up
Suppressing emotions or confining myself is necessary
You can't give in now
Resistance is crucial at this moment
You're forever lost
You are permanently adrift or lost
Now you see me
You witness my presence
I'm not here
I am emotionally absent
I'm in the future
I exist in the future
It's brighter here
The future is more optimistic or positive
In the future
Futuristic optimism is emphasized
When will we get here
Questioning when the future will be reached
When will we get here
Repetition of the anticipation of the future
Will you listen
Asking if you will pay attention
Will you listen
Reiteration of the inquiry about attention
Will you listen
Repetition of the inquiry about attention
